Abstract
A fabric for a machine to produce a fiber web, especially a paper-, board-, tissue- or pulp web, is formed of a flat woven base material having a top side and a bottom side, two terminal ends separated in a machine direction, folds formed in the flat woven base material being separated in the machine direction by the folding defining an inside between the two folded layers and an outside. The two terminal ends are located under the bottom side surface, wherein the two terminal ends one of are adjacent to each other or overlap each other, seam loops located at the folds characterized in that the fabric further has one, two or more sheet-like plies. Also a method to produce a fiber web, especially a paper-, board-, tissue- or pulp web is carried out with a machine that is provided with at least one such novel fabric.
